It has been 40 years since Jesus came into my hospital room to heal me of bleeding ulcers. It was the year 1969 when the Gay Rights Movement was launched in the US. It was also the same year when the Woodstock Generation began with the launch of the Woodstock Festival on August 15, 1969. I was a struggling teenager at the point of death when God fulfilled the promise given to my mother who travailed in prayer before my birth. He told her that she would be the mother of four sons and that her firstborn son belonged to God as “His servant” to do God’s mighty works in the nations of the world. I was that rebellious firstborn who was running away from God. God in His mercy and grace came after me through the travailing prayers of my mother and grandmother visiting me in my affliction to grant me a new life in Jesus Christ. The morning after a Hindu doctor predicted that I would die the night before I was made whole by the touch of my Master’s hand laid upon my ulcerated stomach. I was miraculously healed! Jesus is alive! I realized that day that Jesus was not only able but also willing to heal anyone and everyone who called upon His holy name!
It has been 40 years since that day of miracle healing and deliverance by the hand of my Lord. It was thirty years ago that God opened the door to bring me to the United States. Twenty years ago, God called me into the ministry with His voice clearly leading me and guiding me to do what He has since enabled me to do. This article contains a few of the gems and treasures that I have gathered from my God whom I love and serve.
Join me as I walk with you opening up some of the treasures God has opened up to me.
